Vehicle Wash & Detailing

An ESX/QBCore/QBox wash bay that gradually removes the dirt overlay and (on the detail tier) restores paint shine for a server-charged fee, with a proximity prompt at the bay.

NON-TESTÉ — the reference Lua is syntax-validated, not run in a live FiveM server. Adapt and test on your own dev server before shipping.

Description

A wash bay with a proximity prompt that gradually washes the dirt overlay off a vehicle and, on the detail tier, restores paint shine — all for a fee the server deducts before the shine lands. In a saturated car-wash category the only levers are animation quality and a tiered upsell, and this delivers both.

Known Failure Modes & Corrective Prompt

  • Free wash — dirt is cleared and the fee taken client-side with no server gate.
  • Instant washSetVehicleDirtLevel(veh,0) snaps with no animation.
  • Thread burn — the proximity loop runs at Wait(5) regardless of distance.

Corrective re-prompt: Deduct the fee with a server RemoveMoney and only restore shine inside the wash:finish confirm, lower the dirt level in a Wait(250) loop instead of a single set, and scale the proximity thread's Wait by distance so it idles at ~1000ms when the player is far from the bay.

Framework Integration

ESX: ESX.GetPlayerFromId(src) + xPlayer.removeMoney(price); esx:showNotification. QBCore: exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject(), Player.Functions.RemoveMoney('cash', price), QBCore:Notify. QBox: exports.qbx_core:GetPlayer(src) with Player.Functions.RemoveMoney exactly as shown.

Profit Potential

$80–$1200/mo on Tebex (expected ~$300). [INFERRED] Priced in the $50-389 script band against the signal-scraper tebex_snapshot corpus (n=100, median seller $11.85K/mo), discounted for a saturated car-wash category.

Trend Signal

saturated — inferred: Car-wash scripts are crowded; animation and shine quality are the only differentiator [inferred].

Sales Angle

A commodity that only sells on polish — the gradual wash-off and a paid detail tier are the differentiators. Recommended Tebex price $50.
